India imposed curfew in parts of Assam on Wednesday after suspected NDFB (Songbijit) militants killed 55 people in a series of five attacks in retaliation for an offensive against them. Assam has a history of sectarian bloodshed and groups fighting for greater autonomy or secession from India. Tuesday's attacks by militants of the National Democratic Front of Bodoland within the space of an hour were the deadliest in months. Villagers told police the rebels came on foot, armed with assault rifles and wearing military uniforms.
